WHO’S ON SECOND?: Yesterday marked the 1st time in at least the last 100 years Red Sox pitchers did not allow an op- ponent to reach 2nd base in an extra-inning game...Since at least 1950, no other team has prevented an opponent from reaching 2nd base in a game of at least 12 innings. KINGS OF LEON: Sandy Leon caught all 12 innings and delivered a 3-run, walk-off HR in last night’s win...According to Elias, Leon is the 1st catcher in Red Sox history to hit a walk-off HR in a shutout victory.

The last Red Sox pitcher with a winning streak of at least 13 games was Rich Garces (13 in 1999-2000)... No Sox pitcher has had a longer winning streak since Roger Clemens began the 1986 season 14-0. In his last 17 games in relief between the regular season and postseason (beginning 7/26/16), Kelly is 3-0 with a 0.40 ERA (22.1 IP, 12 H, 1 R, 5 BB, 24 SO).

WE HAVE CONTACT: Mookie Betts has not struck out in his last 82 regular-season plate appearances, beginning with his final PA on 9/2/16 vs. BAL...According to Elias, it is the longest active streak in the majors; the last player with a streak as long was Norichika Aoki (96 PA in 2015). Elias also notes that the last Red Sox player with a streak that long was Wade Boggs (107 PA in 1991). Betts did not play in last night’s game vs. PIT due to flu-like symptoms. UP THE MIDDLE: Dustin Pedroia (.991) and Xander Bogaerts (.980) own the highest career fielding percentages at 2B and SS, respectively, in Red Sox history (min. 400 G). Pedroia has not committed an error in his last 39 regular- season games (131 chances) since 8/20/16...Bogaerts has made only 1 error in his last 51 regular-season games since 8/10/16 (0 errors in his last 21 games).

Carried a no-hitter into at least the 5th inning on 8/16 at BAL (5th), 9/4 at OAK (8th), and 9/20 at BAL (5th)...Also took a no-hitter into the 4th inning on 8/1 at SEA. Allowed just 5 hits over three starts from 8/16-9/4, holding opposing hitters to a .088 AVG (5-for-57). Posted a 2.89 ERA (9 ER/28.0 IP) in 5 September starts (.192 AVG, 30 SO, 7 BB).

in each of his first 5 career starts vs. NYY...Would extend that streak on 8/11 vs. NYY at Fenway (7.0 IP, 3 H, ER, BB, 6 SO), becoming the 1st ML starter to limit the Yankees to 2 or fewer ER in each of his first 6 starts vs. the club since Mike Garcia did so in his first 6 from 1949-51 (Drew Smyly later joined that group).

Had a 0.44 ERA (1 ER/20.2 IP) after his first 3 ML starts, allowing 8 hits total while striking out 21...According to Elias, was the 1st pitcher in baseball history to go at least 6.0 IP while allowing no more than 1 run or 3 hits in each of his first 3 ML games.

each of his first 6 career starts vs. NYY (since ER became an official stat)...In 2015, became the 1st Red Sox LHP to defeat the Yankees 3 times in a season since Babe Ruth in 1917.
